Did you know that the Philippines' Coconut for Soil
Erosion Control has been chosen as one of the 12
Finalists in Newsweek and BBC's World Challenge?

The world challenge is a competition aimed at finding
individuals or groups from around the world who have
shown enterprise and innovation at the grass roots
level and is about finding projects who are making a
difference to their communities.

"The World Challenge" already offers a tremedous
exposure and publicity to our flourishing
coconut industry and Filipino entrepreneurs by
being 1 of just 12 finalists from all over the world.

So if the Philippines' entry is to go on and win
the challenge it will be a much needed boost for our
country and for the image of the Filipino people.
Which we all know is very much needed at this time,
for we really are a people known for our
innovativeness, resourcefulness and resilience.

To check out the Coconet project and the other 11
world finalists visit www.theworldchallenge.co.uk

Don't forget to cast your vote.
